John Wayne says that senators
who voted recently to cut off
U S. funding of the Vietnam war
were in effect giving aid and
comfort to the enemy
"They would have been
tarred and feathered in the old
days," Wayne said in a weekend
news conference at nearby
Callaway Gardens, where he
addressed a convention of the
Georgia Cattlemens Associ-
ation.
The antiwar senators, he said,
didn't find fault with (the late
President John F.) Kennedy
when he started it, they didn't
find fault with the gentleman
from Texas (former President
Lyn B. Johnson) when he sent
all the men over there and then
didn't have the courage to end
it."

the senators to President Nix-
